[NTLUG:Discuss] Placing out feelers

[Andrew Brown]

Yes I think some hardware min's would be nice as well as ready some upgrades 
if needed. I have a connection I am going to reach out to for some RAM as 
well as possible systems. Any other connections would be nice as well...

Any recc'd on system min's to set up front? Which distro to use? I use fedora 
and Suse. Fedora is ok but does need some plugin's to get it really good. 
Suse comes with most the bells and whistles... any recc'd?!?!

and don't start a distro flame war over the distros please hahaha!

Thanks for all the response!
